New Vinyl Playback Technology I have a CD from this company. It compares the originalLP, scratchy and all, to the same but played on the laserturntable. I was not impressed with it. There wasn't a drastic difference. Maybe a little cleaned up but not sounding like the original... | |
McCormack DNA-225 vs. Threshold T800D I owned a T800. Super sound. It's a quirky amp though. TheT series is prone to breaking down. I owned a T400 and T2 new. BOTH pieces had to go back three times each for service! I had a T800 and I loved the sound but sold it for fear of it breakin... | |
Worried about my Sony SCD-1 I have the 777 and no problems. And hey, it's a Sony!The bigger worry with any high end equipment is not ifit breaks but rather WILL the company be in business whenyou need them to fix it! Joe | |
Opinions on a Threshold T-200 The T series sounds great but is prone to breaking down!I owned the T2 and T400 when Threshold was still in business. Both pieces went back to the factory 3 times each!I've heard simular stories from other T series owners. Also;The T2 malfunctione... | |

Reasonable preamps with phono stage Between a friend and myself, we've owned 4 difference versions of the Audible Illusions M3 and M3A. I paid from $600.00 for basic M3 up to $1200.00 for M3A/gold card. I bought the cheapest version just for giggles, not expecting it to out perform ... | |
Dunlavy SC-IVa how best driven I run my Dunlavys with a McCormack DNA2 Deluxe. Preamp is Pass X1. Hard to fault! | |
Packing Peanuts-a waste and do RECYCLE those peanuts. Any shipping place is happy to take them. | |
Audible Illusions M3 vs M3A -- Worth the extra ? Hi Walter, Save yourself the money on the 3A. I've owned both and have had both in several systems. Both sound great!Anyway, the rule is; Buy it at a price you can sell it for if you aren't happy. All the communication like this is'ntworth near as... | |
Preamp-phonostage selection for analog lover Hi Barbara, My nod for preamp/phono stage also goes to the Audible Illusions M3. You may want to consider an original M3 instead of the M3A. I've owned both for a long time and have gone back and forth with the "upgrade" option. The first Audible ... | |
Pro Cables vs. Audio Cables....Are We Being Duped? I'm one of those people who went out and bought or demo'dTransparent and MIT cables. They can make a difference.My experience; I owned at the time of "the great experiment"Threshold T2 preamp, T400 amp, Krell KPS20i cd player. MOSTIMPORTANT, THE R... | |
monoblocks: one dedicated line or two? If you decide to run two lines to your amps, make sure that they are out of phase. That is, one line from each side of your service. The idea is that noise from one leg will cancel or equal 0 on the other. All components in a system are supposed t... | |
Sony SCD1 777ES do they play cdr/w s?? This player not only plays CDR's, it also reads the Table ofContents! If you are burning CDR's on a computer such as aSony Digital Studio, it will write TOC to the disc which is readable by the Sony 777ES! A nifty feature and the reason why it won... | |
Anyone heard Motif Amps done by CJ I owned both the Motif pre-amp and the MS100. Nothing to write home about. The preamp does have a phono section if you need one. |
